Viewing A Dvd Movie - IBM THINKPAD 2000 User Manual

Viewing a DVD movie

After you install the DVD drive and DVDExpress, you can view a DVD movie. You
first need to set the DVD region code for your DVD content, however.
DVD region codes
Regional coding is part of the scheme for protecting the contents of a DVD. The
world is divided into six regions so that specific content can be viewed only in the
region where it is appropriate. For example, content for Region 1 (U.S. and
Canada) can be viewed only in Region 1. DVDExpress is also region–specific.
You can verify the region code of the content by looking at the region code
symbol on the back of the content packaging.
